Organization has one purpose: to exercise collective power. For individuals, in all but the most rare and exceptional circumstances, the most effective way to assert and magnify power is by uniting with others to act. Collectively, people are able to assert power much greater than the sum of their individual efforts, and the more highly organized a section of people is, the more power they are able to exert.

For example, at present, a relatively small section of people is setting the terms for all the rest of us, and we submit to their will. They are able to do it because they’re highly organized. They can wage war to conquer nations. They can impose and run a global economy. They can extract natural resources at extreme volume and speed, coerce others to work for them, and manufacture complex items like spy drones, bullet trains and synthetic drugs. As individuals, we can’t do any of those things. Nor can we, as individuals, stop others from doing these things.

What’s important is the basis of that power. In the United States it’s the consent of the governed, and therein is the issue compelling the citizen..You see, nothing succeeds like power, especially if it is wielded ruthlessly to eliminate opposition and end dissent. Once some people have the authority and force to wield power, you find that self-enrichment is not as powerful a motivation as getting people to do what you want. Whether that’s to eliminate your political or racial opponents or simply to get the populace to parrot your peculiar beliefs about your personal divinity or the imposition of universal poverty is, at that point, unimportant. What’s important is the possession and use of that power. Nothing more..So you’ve stated a tautology, Stephanie, with all the sonorous pomposity of a revelation. Still not impressed. Do you have any idea where you yourself are going with this? Because it’s no longer relevant and terribly, terribly, terribly boring. In the name of the market you’re in and a suffering humanity, I demand better.

About Minimum Security

A group of friends vow to do whatever it takes to stop evil corporate
overlords from destroying the Earth. How? They aren’t sure. They explore
various strategies, but so far nothing has worked. As they build a
resistance movement, those who love them the most can be their biggest
obstacles.
